KitchenAid 7-Speed Digital Hand Mixer



Good Hand Mixer
I have an earlier version of this Kitchen Aid hand mixer, which was purchased in 1994 and still works but I had been thinking about replacing it with a newer one. After reading some of the other reviews, I was a little skeptical about purchasing this model. When it arrived I compared it with my older one and thought this new one seems lighter and wondered if it would be as good. On Thanksgiving Day, I gave it a good workout mixing up 5lbs of potatoes to mash -- I was very impressed with how well it did the job. For me, I think I made the right choice to purchase this hand mixer.

Wonderful
I have the larger Kitchen Aid mixer, but found that I needed a hand mixer as well. Being very satisfied with my larger Kitchen Aid, I looked at the Kitchen Aid hand mixers. I received it just in time for my holiday cooking. I liked the digital dial for the speeds and the ease of the beater release. It is very light weight and easy to hold. It also came with a liquid beater for drinks. I have used it alot already and I am very satisfied. I would recommend to everyone.

RIP KitchenAid - Sorry To See You Go
It would seem that KitchenAid has joined the long list of iconic American manufacturers who can no longer be trusted to produce a quality product. I had always considered KA to be a "quality" brand, I've owned a K5S "Stand" mixer for about 20 years (and most of the available attachments) and it performs perfectly to this day. About 8 years ago I got a KA 5 speed hand mixer for lighter work and from day one I was extremely disappointed by the lack of power. My complaints were heard and this past holiday season, my daughter gave me a new KA 7 speed digital hand mixer. I had high hopes, but that first one wouldn't let me insert the beaters, so I returned it for another. The second one wouldn't even turn on. It went back to Amazon as well, but not before I noticed something very interesting; the mixer I.D plate revealed that this 7 speed model had the exact same 60 Watt motor as my old 5 speed. When I researched the subject, I found that even KA's $100 9 speed digital model uses the same...
